THE Cincinnati 4th ward style OF
Democrats, do not seem to be either all
dead or in the penitentiary. Evidence
has been secured to prove that the bal
lot box in Center township, New Jersey
was tampered With and enough votes
changed to elect the Democratic candi-
date for assemblyman on a recount. The
man who picked the lock for the Demo
cratic committee has been arrested, and
on such scoundrelism as this do the De-
mocracy hope to elect U. s. senator? p?
The Democratic saints affect horror at
the awful crime of the forgery of cleo
tion returns, but when it comes to enjoy
ing the usufruct of such rascality they
are right at the trough.

A TEST vote on the civil service re
form issue was taken in the New York
Assembly Wednesday of last week
which defeated an attempt to repeal all
the civil service reform laws of the
state. Thirty-eight Democrats and no
Republicans voted on the side of the
spoilsmen, and sixty-Gve Republicans
and only three Democrats for the cause
of reform. This is test of party feel
ing worth remepbering. 1t shows that
the Democratic members of the legisla>
ture in CIeveland's own state, where
the party's pretensions have been most
lofty, are opposed to civil service reform
by about thirteen to one, while every
Republican vote in the same body was
cast on the side of business principles
in politics. When the summer of 1883
comes around and the Democratic party
begins another desperate effort to carry
the Presidential election by the aid OF
the MugwGmps, it will again assert its
devotion to the cause of reform and
will certainly promise anything de-
panded by the reform element.

AFTER FIVE years of service on the
bench, as Judge of the Common pleas
court in this district, Hon. st. Clair
Kelly retired from the Judicial Office on
Tuesday. During the years of his ad-
plinistration of the high Office of Judge,
the record he has made for himself is
known by the citizens of this district
His ad administration has been marked by
strict attention to duty and by an earn
est desire to so perform the duties OF
the Office as to accomplish the purposes
for which courts were created. 1t is
Lot too much to say that no Judge ever
laid down the judicial ermine in this
district, who had stronger hold on the
affections of the bar and the people, and
none ever retired with more hearty good
wishes. The people of Belmont county
will always feel a lively interest in
Jndge Kelly's welfare. and will point
with pride to bis record as an able, fear
less and upright Judge.

A TERRIBLE blizzard prevailed all
through the Northwest last week. Dis
patches gave meager details of its ef-
fects, but some of the circumstances re-
ported are very suggestive of the great
sufferings endured by the people and
the cattle herds. The heavy drifts of
snow and paralyzing cold cut off the or
binary supplies of fuel, and people in
some instances burned their fences and
outbuildings. To venture out in the
storm was almost certain death, and
many cattle died of cold and hunger.
Wire fences are great death traps in
such weather. The instinct of cattle
leads them to keep in motion with their
lacks to the blizzard, and while moving
on in this manner they fetch up against
a wire fence, they huddle helplessly
against it, snow heaping in drifts.a2ainst
them, until they drop In their tracks
from cold and hunger.

The Railroad Attorneys bill as amend
ed before passage by the senate is a
grotesque piece of legislation. 1t pro'
hibits members of congress from &C
cepting fees from the land-grant roads
only when a member has reasonable
cause to believe that measures specially
affecting the interests of such company
are pending before congress or about to
be so pending during his term of Office. y
Under this bill all that will be necessary
to escape the penalty, will be for the
elastic minded railroad attorney to de-
clare that be had no reasonable cause
to believe that any measure affecting
the company's interest would be before
congress. The bill is simply dim
shadow without substance.

THE report that Minister Pendleton
has been picked out as Manoings suc>
cessor at the head of the treasury de-
partment is declared to be well founded.
About the only reputation Pendleton
has in connection with National fnan-
ces arises from his proposal to pay the
interest on the government bonds in
greenbacks, on which platform he ran
for the Democratic Presidential nomina-
tion in 1868. but was set aside in favor
of Seymour. As the author Of the civil
service act. his pame is not at present
revered either by the kids or by the
Jacksonian Democracy.
